The church in Corinth was an absolute mess! They were plagued by serious issues of arrogance, division, sexual immorality, and confusion concerning doctrine as well as the particulars of their moral living under the gospel. This church needed a wake-up call, a call to repentance and purity, to renewed devotion to Christ, to love and unity, and to zeal for the gospel. The church has changed little over the last 2,000 years, but praise God that there is abundant grace for the mess! Each of us needs this same call to humility faithfulness, unity, and fervor today as much as they needed it then. Let\u2019s heed this call which God gave the church at Corinth through the apostle Paul and let it shape the way we live as Christ\u2019s body!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul now turns his attention to yet another issue he had heard of which was plaguing the Corinthian church. Apparently there were some of them who were denying that there will be an actual, physical resurrection from the dead. Paul asserts that if this claim is true then our believing is in vain, for that would mean that Jesus was not raised from the dead either!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, Paul asserts, Jesus\u00a0<em>was<\/em> raised from the dead, and the hope of His resurrection is that we will also experience the resurrection of our bodies! The historicity of Christ\u2019s resurrection from the dead is the hinge on which our entire faith swings. If it is not true, then all of us have believed and been faithful for absolutely nothing! But if it is true (and it is), then we also will get to share in Christ\u2019s resurrection with Him when He returns!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paul elaborates on the nature of the resurrected body when it comes and reminds the Corinthians that God has already given us the victory in and through Jesus! When Jesus rose from the dead He rose in victory, and now we who live by faith in Him also get to walk in the victory that He has already won! This should fill us with such awe, such wonder, and such genuine, passionate worship!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This chapter ends with a practical application of these truths about the resurrection for us: because Jesus has already won the victory and because we, solely by the grace of God, get to share with Him in His victory, we are to be steadfast, immovable, and abounding in the work of God\u2019s Kingdom. We do this because we know, based on the fact that Jesus has already won the victory in His resurrection, that nothing we do for the Lord will is ever wasted, but will bring repercussions that will last into eternity!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ugb-container ugb-container ugb-81a98ff ugb-container--v2 ugb-container--design-basic ugb-main-block\" id=\"\"><style>.ugb-81a98ff-wrapper.ugb-container__wrapper{border-radius:12px !important;background-color:#f1f1f1 !important}.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper.ugb-container__content-wrapper{width:100% !important}.ugb-81a98ff-wrapper.ugb-container__wrapper:before{background-color:#f1f1f1 !important}.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h1,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h2,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h3,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h4,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h5,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > h6{color:#222222}.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > p,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > ol li,.ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper > ul li{color:#222222}<\/style><div class=\"ugb-inner-block\"><div class=\"ugb-block-content\"><div class=\"ugb-container__wrapper ugb-81a98ff-wrapper ugb--shadow-3\"><div class=\"ugb-container__side\"><div class=\"ugb-container__content-wrapper ugb-81a98ff-content-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1 Corinthians 15<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Resurrection of Christ<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>15\u00a0<\/strong>Now I would remind you, brothers,\u00a0of the gospel\u00a0I preached to you, which you received,\u00a0in which you stand,\u00a0<sup>2\u00a0<\/sup>and by which\u00a0you are being saved, if you\u00a0hold fast to the word I preached to you\u2014unless you believed in vain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><sup>3&nbsp;<\/sup>For&nbsp;I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died&nbsp;for our sins&nbsp;in accordance with the Scriptures,&nbsp;<sup>4&nbsp;<\/sup>that he was buried, that he was raised&nbsp;on the third day&nbsp;in accordance with the Scriptures,&nbsp;<sup>5&nbsp;<\/sup>and that&nbsp;he appeared to Cephas, then&nbsp;to the twelve.&nbsp;<sup>6&nbsp;<\/sup>Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep.&nbsp;<sup>7&nbsp;<\/sup>Then he appeared to&nbsp;James, then&nbsp;to all the apostles.&nbsp;<sup>8&nbsp;<\/sup>Last of all, as to one untimely born,&nbsp;he appeared also to me.&nbsp;<sup>9&nbsp;<\/sup>For&nbsp;I am the least of the apostles, unworthy to be called an apostle, because&nbsp;I persecuted the church of God.&nbsp;<sup>10&nbsp;<\/sup>But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace toward me was not in vain.

What is sown is perishable; what is raised is imperishable.\u00a0<sup>43\u00a0<\/sup>It is sown in dishonor;\u00a0it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised in power.\u00a0<sup>44\u00a0<\/sup>It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.
